Shikaio means Four Sea Kings and signifies the pinnacle of sake production as well Japan's premier sake among the Pacific Ocean, the Japan Sea, East China Sea, and Okhotsk Sea.

Shikaio stands as the flagship brand crafted by Fukui Shuzo, a sake producer that began its journey in 1912 in Toyohashi, Aichi Prefecture. Since its inception, Fukui Shuzo has remained dedicated to the art of hand-crafting sake. Their company motto, "Tradition is a new spirit to overcome old powers," encapsulates their ethos of innovation and resilience. The brewery's mission is to craft sake that inspires daily enjoyment and smiles, harmonizing good water, rice, koji, and precise temperature controls to create exceptional sake experiences.

The brewery exclusively uses water from their well, originating from the renowned Tenryu River known for its pristine quality and rich mineral content. The soft water offers depth and easy drinkability. It stands apart from commercially available soft water and plays a vital role in their sake production.
